Today was a very special day for my friends and I. We walked in the Revlon Run/Walk for Breast cancer research for the 10th year﻿ in a row.

Start line and Hallie Berry.

My Best friend and I.

On the left is the sign I wore on my back. Every year I walk for my 2 moms. My mother was diagnosed with breast cancer when she was pregnant with my twin sister and I. She fought hard but lost her battle 28 years ago when we were 7 years old. My best friend's mom has "adopted" us as her daughters and was also diagnosed with breast cancer 10 years ago. We walk for her as well.

When I got home I was surprised to find My Creative Time's "Race for a Cure" stamp set in my mail box. My dear twin sister knew I really wanted the set and bought it for me.

Even though I have been up since 4am I had to make a card using this wonderful stamp set!

(it's almost midnight)

Thank you Yvonne! and Emma, from My Creative Time!

I can't wait to scrapbook this year's event and add it to my Run/walk album.

WOW! your card is just AMAZING my sweet friend:) I didn't realize that you & Miss Yvonne were sisters! You two are amazing women & I hope that this stamp set I designed for this special cause truly helps out find a cure! This is such a HORRIBLE disease that takes way too many special people in our lives away from us. WOW! you walked this 10 years in a row? I take my hat off to you my sweet friend!;) thank you for showcasing my stamps so BEAUTIFULLY;)Huge Gypsy hugs, Emma;)
